1. Introduction 
The scientific literature and activities on traffic arrangement, planning and management represent many different 
technologies, methods and tools which are used to assess the traffic in city SRNs. As a result of analysis of papers 
by both foreign and domestic authors, several theses can be emphasized: 

cities road network is a complicated and complex structure and as a consequence it requires a single integrated 
approach in matters of both operational and strategic management;

assessment of the traffic quality level is an important component of the traffic flows operational management;

Abstract 
Among the tasks for traffic arrangement, planning and management one of the most urgent tasks is the problem of assessing the 
influence of various factors on the feature to be studied. The paper analyzes the factors influencing the traffic flow, and 
information cycle between the strategic, planned and operational level of traffic management. The approach to the solution of the 
problem proposed in the paper using the correlation-regression analysis method combined with the use of geoinformation 
databases allows to determine a queue size at the crossings of the city street-and-road network (SRN) with its subsequent 
application in the operational management of the city traffic.
